CND PINK PURSUIT

Friday, 20 January 2017

Growing out my own nails was something I dedicated most of 2016 to, but one thing I can’t stand doing is painting them. Due to this I always end up going for nail extensions which I know is dreadful! My natural nails are actually really strong and can grow out pretty long if I allow them to, but for some reason I always feel like I’m being overly cautious when I have my natural nails, so getting falsies always ends up happening every seven to eight months. So you guessed it, I am back to fake nails and I am loving every minute of it haha! :D

Instead of getting normal nail polish put on them I ended up asking for shellac. There was this girl at the nail salon holding the most gorgeous colour and she also had it on her nails, so of course I had to compliment her and ask for the shade. Don't act like you've never done it! It’s called Pink Pursuit and it’s by CND. It’s the most stunning neutral pink shade that looks opaque at the root of your nails, but semi-sheer in the extension part. I love that look! When first applied the colour looked a little peachy, but after it dries it goes this very light, natural pink. I have fallen in love with it and I can see myself getting the same colour time and time again.

Gorgeous colour! And the best thing about nude nails with shellac is that it's less visible as your nails grow out than, say, a red - so you can wear it for longer! I'm so jealous that you have such naturally strong nails - do you take any supplements? xxx Tess Alexandra
